This wiki was started mid 2008. It's aim was to be used as an interactive and online tool that could enhance and support the process of devising a piece of theatre for young audiences. The members of the ensemble could engage with each other on this public forum no matter where they were as all it required was internet access. The wiki worked well for its purpose and I believe it has great potential to be utilised as an ICT for performance making. The wiki is now entering its 2nd generation of use as it will be used again in the development and workshopping of Webbed the show that the wiki was used to help create.

The New Look
So I was going to try and reorgnaise all the other pages so that they were more coherent for any stranger coming on board and having a look. However left how it was gives some insight into the first process whcih could be helpful for future research into the use of digital technologies. So on the side bar there is the home button, Gen1.0 and Gen2.0 which will take you to the respective links page. Trying to work out if I can implement a system of drop out menu's or not to make navigation even more simpler. Anyway I need to start working on the Gen2.0 side.
